A reasearcher looked into some of these debates named Otto Wahl. He looked at every televison show and film releasaed by Hollywoood for a full year.Of these shows released and aired on commercial television stations and in film theaters all except 1 had a discriminating view of brain disorders .

By all estamates nationally and locally, 35# of homless individuals have a untreated brain disorder that expresses itself during the week. Most of these citizens are not violent, do not own or posses weapons and do not threaten anybody they are often victims of street violence by outside forces. Their are different allies in this debate, 1 800 959-6264 has investigated state mental hospitals to see if they are doing their job, also prisoners rights have been helped and new medicines most more effective are being used so that victims can hold jobs, live outside institutions and date.The nami.org has difficulty in some states although they maintain support groups in all 50 states for people and family to meet and talk about the good and the bad. They sometimes get involved in lost people with brain disorders.
